3. To change the password, press á
ß
or â to select the first character of the
password, and then press à to go to the next character. Repeat until you have
entered the entire password.
4. To cancel the new password, press à until the password is erased. To save the
new password, press the Enter button. The next time you remotely configure the
modem you must use the new password.
To improve security, you can change a remote modem’s remote configuration escape character. The
remote configuration escape character is stored in register S13 . The factory default is 42, which is the
ASCII code for the asterisk character (*). Setting S13 to 0 (zero) disables remote configuration entirely—
but if you do this remotely, you won’t be able to change it back remotely!
1. Establish a remote configuration link with the remote modem as described in
“Basic Procedure.”
2. Type ATS13= n , where n is the ASCII code for the new remote configuration
escape character, and then press ENTER.
3. Save the new value by typing AT&W and pressing ENTER.
4. Type ATO<CR> to exit remote configuration.
